Editorial
Modern practice of medicine has evolved from intuitions and personal rationales to evidence based medicine (EBM). EBM demands a clinician to remain up to date with new developments, and to justify his/her decisions of clinical practice based on available evidence about the topic of interest. Research, critical thinking and literature search are part and parcel of EBM. A clinician should have a basic insight of research methodology and literature search even if they are not directly involved in a research project.
